And then on the other hand, I'd go to an uncle who raised two sons that were never barmitzvahe until they were adult. They were never barmitzvahed by their fath you know, during his life time, but they were also part of this family that was quite intensely Jewish even though they weren't all as extremely Orthodox as this one family that I lived with. In what way would you say they · were Jewish?

They keep kosher because the wife insists on it, I think, not because my cousin does. And they have no children so there's no great pressure on them to So, anyway , that's the family from the standpoint of ~ religion. |
